Our mission at Gathering Place Resort & Lodge is to create an environment in the tranquility of the
Wisconsin outdoors where families and friends can gather and build memories.

Want more adventurous activity? Our area offers an abundance of hiking, biking, mountain biking and ATV trails, as well as golfing, shopping and dining opportunities.
Explore Wisconsin!
At Gathering Place Resort & Lodge, we have the distinct advantage of being located at the intersection of four wonderful counties in Northwest Wisconsin. Each of these counties has a unique flavor and allow our guests to explore both the Central Plain and Northern Highland geographic regions of Wisconsin.
Washburn County, to our northwest, and Barron County, to our southwest, are in the Central Plain Region of Wisconsin. The Central Plain Region is primarily a hardwood forest of maple, birch, and aspen, but there are several areas of prairie as well as cranberry bogs and sandstone buttes scattered across the region. The plain is occasionally broken by rolling hills throughout its western half.
The Northern Highland region is colloquially referred to as "up north" and contains Rusk County located to the Southeast of the resort and Swayer County to the Northeast. The Northern Highland region was once a mountain range similar to the Alps or Rocky Mountains but over hundreds of millions of years, these mountains have been worn and flattened out by erosion and glaciation. Most of the Northern Highland is covered in woodlands with Sugar Maple and Aspen, as well as Red and White Pine.
